WHM - The Best Hosting Platform To Manage Hosting Accounts

  • April 19, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Web Host Manager is the very best solution to run a small web hosting business. It's interface is very simple and easy to use. It's documentation is organized into easy categories, making it
simple to find instructions on how to do any of it's many features. The most common function you will probably use is the setting up a new web hosting account for a new customer, which it's just a matter of of few clicks, and then entering data into a few input fields.
couple of clicks and then inputting a few form fields.
What do you dislike about the product?
WHM isn't the greatest solution for medium or larger web hosting companies unless you also integrate a third party system like WHMCS. Smaller hosting or web design companies should also integrate
third party backup solutions , because the backup functionality of cPanel accounts is not as modern in terms of "ease of use" as one might think. Otherwise, you have to go through each cPanel account,individually, and then download the backup or ftp it to a server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
WHM (Web Host Manager) is very good software, an ideal solution for small web development companies who might also want to start making an additional revenue source by selling hosting. The platform is easy to learn, find features in it's documentation, and navigate
through the well-organized administrative panel. Creating a new web hosting account for a new customer can be achieved in a matter of just minutes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Install a third party backup solution so you don't have to backup your cPanel accounts one by one. Allow multiple domains on new accounts by default.

What do you like best about the product?
very easy management of the environment for your web domain, has many work tools including mysql, postgresql, phpmyadmin among many monitoring tools, uploading files, among them we can see the easy creation of web sub-domains, create email accounts , redirect link among many other things that the cpanel can offer, I think it is a very useful tool and 100% effective both for the simple administration for beginners and for an advanced expert, highly recommended.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I do not like very much about this license is that it is heavy in terms of hardwre resources but everything has a benefit which is that the tool to be heavy meets all the described requirements which characterize it as one of The best website managers in the market.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main benefit I have obtained with cpanel is that I can manage in terms of working time and problem solving, that is, I have created several tools on my website which my clients can access and simply by making a request can solve in an expected manner the inconvenience which the client has. very practical really.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
recommended since it is the main tool of work for the day to day in the computer area, easy to administer servers, or if you want to be a seller of web services, among other features is the cost, since it is economical and is not required Be an expert to learn how to use this valuable tool.

Easiest Server Control Panel Ever

  • March 29, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The GUI is very intuitive and laid out very cleanly and with the ability to search available functions makes it quick to get where you need to go and quickly make changes to various services running on your server. In addition, it's incredibly easy to manage sites, users, DNS and emails using the available tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some areas that overlap and you'll find similar settings in a few different places which can get confusing for someone just starting out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have multiple servers and I needed a solution so that others in my office, who are not as tech savy and Linux/Unix knowledgeable, would be able to setup and manage aspects of client accounts. This made it easy for our sales staff and support staff to access logs, add domains, and make simple DNS changes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely figure out how many sites you plan on hosting and determine things like the server hostname and DNS urls before install. Changing hostname can cause some additional work later, but is doable. Once it's setup, you may need to update various service configuration as they may get set to default values. Once that is done, decide if you want the system to automatically update or would rather control that yourself. If you do decide for automatic updates, make sure you utilize the system backup functions to automatically create backups in case it updates and throws an error at you after.

Security wise you may want to consider how much of a target you are and couple some of the built in security features with a hardware firewall as well.

Too much limitations for power use

  • March 16, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that it makes web admin duties easy and automated for beginners
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike is that it blocks everything you would do form the terminal. I can’t do my job anymore because cOanel and WHM are in control!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My boss was using it when he was the only person to work on his VPS because he is not really a tech person
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you don’t know how to manage a server use that. Otherwise, stay away!

An excellent hosting management panel

  • February 22, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I think it's great how to manage a hosting with this software, they really do everything very simple and is included in the vast majority of hostings. In addition to having a large number of tools such as database management, file management and FTP accounts, network disks and subdomain management. It allows a simple and fast administration thanks to its web interface very well maintained and modern.
What do you dislike about the product?
There really are very few things that I do not like. As for example, the handling of SSL certificates is sometimes complicated. Creating a database and then linking it with users can be a bit tedious when many users must be linked. Unable to load complete folders through the file manager, first you must create the folder and then upload the files, something that can be complicated when dealing with many files, the fastest way is to upload a zip file and then decompress it on the server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This software helped many problems of file management and databases for the company's own hosting. It has also contributed in giving greater security to the server and its internal management, and in giving comfort to the management of hosting servers, since managing everything directly from Apache and other programs is much more tedious because it is directly on the Linux console.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend this software because it is really comfortable and easy to use, you can do administration tasks which can be done by hand much more complicated. In addition, the file manager is very useful to upload new content to the hosting without the need to install an FTP program on the computer.

The best web server management solution!

  • February 16, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
WHM is the easiest and best solution for managing a web server with multiple websites and accounts. It is the admin side of cPanel and allows you to manage cPanel accounts with ease. It also allows powerful 3rd party plugins such as JetBackupManager.
What do you dislike about the product?
WHM sometimes take a while to get modern features. For example, it took forever to get two-factor authentication. I also wish that alert emails could be sent via SMTP through services like Sparkpost for increased delivery.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
WHM allows me to manage my web server easily. It saves me time and allows me to have an easy backup system that saves time and money if a website ever goes down.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are running a Linux web server and want the best and easiest management software for multiple websites and accounts, you can't go wrong with WHM.

What do you like best about the product?
The attractive things that cpanel presents are many among them the ones I like the most: adding thousands of sub domain webs, managing your files from each website that you add, installing tools like wordpress with just one click.

In addition to this, it presents us with quite innovative ideas in terms of google adsense, bing ads, and we can manage all the configurations of each website that we have in a simple and fast way, it is a tool that will not get slow and will always be it will keep working well.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing to dislike about cpanle , i absolutely like it, Its very easy to work with, user-friendly, easy visuals. I love all its features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has provided me a platform which has helped me manage my website in a very easy way and simplified way. Excellent software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend everyone to use cpanel. because it is a great platform to manage web pages. Easiest way to create websites and haandle it . I have already recommended this to my family. They also say it is one of the most finest platforms in the world. It is also secured. You dont need to worry about anything.

Web Hosting Manager is the only way to go for Linux servers.

  • February 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
WHM aka Web Host Manager is THE best addition to CPANEL to help operate your hosting/server account. There are other variances of CPANEL/WHM that come close but none can match WHM. The features and open availability to add more as you grow is one of the best features I love about it. The other reason I love WHM is due to cost. It is cost effective for anyone running a new server or starting a new business. A+++++++!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more webmail choices. I have used Cpanel/WHM for over 10 years and have always wished they would add more mail options. But you learn to work with what is included and make the best of it. There's really only one other thing I dislike and that is some of the compatibility issues. There's some software that works on Windows servers but does not work on Linux and I wish there was a way to change that , but that's really all I dislike about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time is the biggest. WHM makes things that would normally be time-consuming, much much faster. It streamlines the rest of what you're working on and it all kind of falls into place, but much quicker. The other problem we are solving is saving money by purchasing WHM. There are alternative solutions but they cost much more than this software and may or may not have similar features. Lastly, Ease of use is a definite solution to many problems, especially with inexperienced staff. Most novice users have caught onto WHM and it's features really quickly. Very easy to learn!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
GO FOR IT! You don't have much to lose. The cost for this is cheap enough where it won't break your bank account, so if you don't like it after you try it, you won't be out of much. They also offer trials as well as month-to-month terms as well, so you don't even have to tie up a whole year or more. That's what makes this product that much better! Go ahead and try it, you will NOT be disappointed.

cPanel is not intuitive

  • January 19, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Not much. This software is hard for me to use. Nothing is where I expect it to be and I waste a lot of time just looking for things.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its customer service support isn't very good, either. Takes days to resolve the most mundane issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is email software and I email through it. Being able to communicate is a benefit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you can use something else, do so.

Handling your Website with a Unique Dashboard.

  • November 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that cPanel is included with every goDaddy hosting, and offers a fully functional way to manage your website. From uploading files, to checking traffic, to creating emails that can be used to make your website look professional.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the the IDE that come with the code editor in the file search feature. It is a code editor, but it can be seen as a striped down version of Notepad++ in a web browser. It also doesn't allow multiple file uploads.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With cPanel, we are able to use it to create emails, handle simple file uploads without FTP, and check logs and visitors of our website.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
cPanel is included with your Go Daddy hosting, i recommend you take advantage of it while you can, and learn to utilize it. It's useful to know your way around cPanel if your developer isn't around to help you at the moment with small problems.
